+<H2>NAME</H2><PRE>
+ <STRONG>mitem_new</STRONG> - create and destroy menu items
+
+
+</PRE>
+<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
+ <STRONG>#include</STRONG> <STRONG>&lt;menu.h&gt;</STRONG>
+ ITEM *new_item(const char *name, const char *description);
+ int free_item(ITEM *item);
+
+
+</PRE>
+<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
+ The function <STRONG>new_item</STRONG> allocates a new item and initializes
+ it from the <STRONG>name</STRONG> and <STRONG>description</STRONG> pointers. Please notice
+ that the item stores only the pointers to the name and
+ description. Those pointers must be valid during the life-
+ time of the item. So you should be very careful with names
+ or descriptions allocated on the stack of some routines.
+ The function <STRONG>free_item</STRONG> de-allocates an item. Please notice
+ that it is the responsibility of the application to
+ release the memory for the name or the description of the
+ item.
+
+
+</PRE>
+<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
+ The function <STRONG>new_item</STRONG> returns <STRONG>NULL</STRONG> on error. It sets
+ errno according to the function's failure:
+
+ <STRONG>E_BAD_ARGUMENT</STRONG>
+ Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argu-
+ ment.
+
+ <STRONG>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</STRONG>
+ System error occurred, e.g., malloc failure.
+
+ The function <STRONG>free_item</STRONG> returns one of the following:
+
+ <STRONG>E_OK</STRONG> The routine succeeded.
+
+ <STRONG>E_BAD_ARGUMENT</STRONG>
+ Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argu-
+ ment.
+
+ <STRONG>E_CONNECTED</STRONG>
+ Item is connected to a menu.
+
+ <STRONG>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</STRONG>
+ System error occurred (see <STRONG>errno</STRONG>).

+ were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
